tipc: some cleanups in the file discover.c

To facilitate the coming changes in the neighbor discovery functionality
we make some renaming and refactoring of that code. The functional changes
in this commit are trivial, e.g., that we move the message sending call in
tipc_disc_timeout() outside the spinlock protected region.

tipc: eliminate buffer leak in bearer layer

When enabling a bearer we create a 'neigbor discoverer' instance by
calling the function tipc_disc_create() before the bearer is actually
registered in the list of enabled bearers. Because of this, the very
first discovery broadcast message, created by the mentioned function,
is lost, since it cannot find any valid bearer to use. Furthermore,
the used send function, tipc_bearer_xmit_skb() does not free the given
buffer when it cannot find a bearer, resulting in the leak of exactly
one send buffer each time a bearer is enabled.

This commit fixes this problem by introducing two changes:

1) Instead of attemting to send the discovery message directly, we let
tipc_disc_create() return the discovery buffer to the calling
function, tipc_enable_bearer(), so that the latter can send it
when the enabling sequence is finished.

2) In tipc_bearer_xmit_skb(), as well as in the two other transmit
functions at the bearer layer, we now free the indicated buffer or
buffer chain when a valid bearer cannot be found.

tipc: fix race in disc create/delete

Commit a21a584d6720ce349b05795b9bcfab3de8e58419 (tipc: fix neighbor
detection problem after hw address change) introduces a race condition
involving tipc_disc_delete() and tipc_disc_add/remove_dest that can
cause TIPC to dereference the pointer to the bearer discovery request
structure after it has been freed since a stray pointer is left in the
bearer structure.

In order to fix the issue, the process of resetting the discovery
request handler is optimized: the discovery request handler and request
buffer are just reset instead of being freed, allocated and initialized.
As the request point is always valid and the request's lock is taken
while the request handler is reset, the race doesn't happen any more.

tipc: make discovery domain a bearer attribute

The node discovery domain is assigned when a bearer is enabled.
In the previous commit we reflect this attribute directly in the
bearer structure since it's needed to reinitialize the node
discovery mechanism after a hardware address change.

There's no need to replicate this attribute anywhere else, so we
remove it from the tipc_link_req structure.

Modifies bearer creation and deletion code to improve handling of

creation routine now aborts the creation of a bearer if its discovery

than failing quietly and leaving an unusable bearer hanging around.

Since the exit via the goto label really isn't a definitive failure
in all cases, relabel it appropriately.

tipc: Combine bearer structure with tipc_bearer structure

Combines two distinct structures containing information about a TIPC bearer
into a single structure. The structures were previously kept separate so
that public information about a bearer could be made available to plug-in
media types using TIPC's native API, while the remaining information was
kept private for use by TIPC itself. However, now that the native API has
been removed there is no longer any need for this arrangement.

Since one of the structures was already embedded within the other, the
change largely involves replacing instances of "publ.foo" with "foo".
The changes do not otherwise alter the operation of TIPC bearers.
